History

A wet Martini with hints of maraschino and absinthe.

Adapted from Harry Craddock's 1930 The Savoy Cocktail Book, the "Moonshine Cocktail" is intended for (6 people) and calls for "3 Glasses Gin", "2 Glasses French Vermouth", and "1 Glass Maraschino". A drop of Absinthe Bitters should be added before shaking.
